Discovering New Family Travel
In an exciting initiative to blend family travel with education, Hayama Umi Hotel, managed by Shimada Hotel Partners Co., Ltd., is participating in the Miura Peninsula Nursery Program. This program, in collaboration with Keikyu Corporation, offers an immersive experience for families, allowing parents to balance work and parenting while their children engage in explorative learning by the beach.
A Closer Look at the Miura Peninsula Nursery Program
Launched as part of a new business development initiative by Keikyu Group employees, the program connects five childcare and educational institutions in the Zushi-Hayama area. By declaring the entire Miura Peninsula as one vast “nursery,” parents can stay with their children in the local community. Children have the opportunity to learn and socialize on the same grounds as local peers, fostering their development in a natural setting. The program emphasizes cultivating the ability to live independently and harmoniously with nature, a skill deemed essential in today’s AI-driven age.
Hayama Umi Hotel's Commitment to Family and Nature
Since its opening, Hayama Umi Hotel has focused on providing guests with a serene and restorative experience by the sea. The hotel resonates with the values of the Miura Peninsula Nursery Program, as it nurtures children’s growth through sensory experiences in nature while allowing parents to reclaim their own time. The hotel’s dedicated staff is committed to ensuring that families can enjoy their stay comfortably and authentically.
Experiences at the Hotel
Participating families will have the option to choose from three different accommodations upon booking. The hotel is located just steps away from the ocean, providing a perfect backdrop of morning light, sunset colors, and the soothing sounds of waves to enrich family moments together.
Workcation-Friendly Facilities
The hotel features guest rooms and lounges designed for work, offering a calm environment with sea views. Guests can seamlessly transition between work and relaxation in a coastal setting that enhances productivity. There’s also collaboration with nearby co-working spaces, such as AMIGO HOUSE, equipped with large tables and desk lamps for those looking for a change of scenery.
Immerse in Local Living
The program allows parents and children to enjoy local life in Hayama, experiencing the charm of local bakeries, seaside cafes, and picturesque evening walks. This unique staycation enables participants to feel like true locals.
